If your child doesn’t want what you fixed for dinner, do you make them something else or make them eat what was given to them? I Don’t Run a Restaurant
Tickets to Disney on Ice
I don’t run a restaurant, so they eat what’s on their plate. Thankfully, we have trained our kids to be diverse eaters. —Stephanie C.
I Make Them Something Else Although this doesn’t happen often, if it’s something I know one of my children doesn’t like, I make them something else. I don’t believe in forcing them to eat something they don’t like. I always hated eating things I didn’t like. —Bebe J.
Fruits & Veggies Fill Them Up
Tickets to A Beef and Boards Christmas
In order to keep our fruit and veggie intake up, I’ve always got lots of sliced fruits and veggies on the table with our meals and they can always fill up on those. —Anna S.
They Can Wait for Breakfast Everyone eats what was made or they can wait for breakfast! Making them something different only encourages picky eating. —Amber G.
I Happily Cook Anything He Asks For My son refuses to eat ANYTHING except crackers and fruit. So I would happily cook him anything he asked for. But that has yet to happen. —Mariah S.
Tickets to The Nutcracker by the Indianapolis School of Ballet
My Son is a Picky Eater I always make dinner for me and the husband and then for the children, because my son is extremely picky! If I am cooking something for “us-the adults” that I know my son will eat then he has to eat it. My only fear is that I don’t want to do this forever and I worry I’m turning my youngest into a picky eater!—Natalie L.
I Won’t Make Anything Else
Tickets to Winterfest at the Indiana History Center
They don’t have to eat it. But I’m sure not making them anything else.—Heidi S.
They Can Fix Something Themselves My son either eats what I fix or fixes something for himself, ie: leftovers or PB&J.—Terry H.
